Why don’t they put that Jeff Perry under the jail they keep catching him and turning him loose why put his behind away for about 10 to 15 years (GOOD LORD).
People in their 30s and 40s looking like they’re 75.
Unfortunately some of these folks look like they’re knockin on deaths door, and the only hope for these people is incarceration if they expect to be alive much longer.
Everyone on here is someone’s child, husband, wife, brother, sister, and mother or father, and sometimes for the families who worry themselves sick they are relieved when their loved one is incarcerated, and they can finally take a deep breath and be able to sleep without worrying about getting that awful phonecall that no loved one wants to get.
If the courts don’t want to lock them up as punishment, then lock them up for their families sake so that they can at least have some semblance of peace.
Amanda Rosser Fuller isn’t 22 either lol more like 42.
I am offended. Same list, another week. Why does our justice system fail us? I am truely offended.
Exactly how many times does someone have to get arrested before they get in actual trouble? Or, do they ever? Doesn’t seem like it… same ones over and over.
